Great resume boost, but terribly toxic work environment - Senior Admissions Officer Columbia University Employee Review

Pros

Great pay compared to other admissions jobs and as well as what doors can open for you with having it on your resume. If you last 4 years you can get a masters there.

Cons

No grace given and very easy to get on someone’s bad list. Anxiety driven work. Everything is treated as if it is the end of the world. Be very careful who you confide in and whose around when you criticize. Incredibly awful work-life balance.

Pros

The work when I had it was amazing, I really appreciated it for what it gave me.

Cons

Unfortunately, with the change in management came zero transparency and rules for thee, not for me. It's led to really weird decisions.
